Vanquish Currie axle vs stock performance

[uclabruins89]

How much performance loss is there going from stock plastic axles that slide easily to the Currie axles which get hung up more often?

I've used my Currie's once and seemed to get hung up a lot, but wanted to see other's opinions about performance.

Thanks

My experience is with the wraith but I have noticed no difference since switching to the currie axles. Something is wrong with your driving if you're dragging the tubes on rocks constantly ;) and the Delrin skids on the pumpkins are more slick than stock plastic housings.

I moved from the Wraith to the SCX10. Suddenly having a centre pumpkin took some getting used to. I have to remember to adjust my attack angle rather than aiming straight. Also with the shorter 1.9s the challenge is much more fun. Am still on stock axles so far. I think I'll get the non Curry VP when they fail.

I wasn't dragging tubes, I was catching just outside the delrin skid plate around the center pumpkin in the front. I think I'm gonna put the stock axles on for a while until I get a bit better at driving
